Sarah Palin (pictured) has only been governor of Alaska for 18 months. Before that she was the mayor of Wasilla, a suburb of Anchorage with a population of less than 10,000.

Will the Obama camp go after Palin for her lack of experience or will they fear a backlash because of Barack’s lack of experience?

Scott Johnson of Power Line says:

Obama's endless parade of ignorant gaffes are walled off by a bodyguard of media fans. Governor Palin will have no such margin for error.

You can bet that less than one hour after McCain introduced Palin as his running mate there were at least two private jets taking of for Alaska with investigators on board intent on digging up dirt on the VP pick.

ABC is gleefully reporting that Gov. Palin is already under investigation in Alaska. The ABC article at the link below is proudly boasting that she could be deposed.

It’s the same ABC that, along with most of the other news networks, gloss over or ignore the Rezko Obama connection.

Bernie Ward (pictured) a well known California radio personality was sentenced to seven years and three months in federal prison.

Former KGO radio host Bernie Ward today completed his tumble from one of the Bay Area's most popular liberal voices on the local airwaves to a pariah caught up in the world of online child pornography.

Ward filled KGO's airwaves for three hours every night, an outspoken liberal who took on the Iraq war, conservative causes and President George W. Bush.

Ward, a former Catholic priest, also hosted the station's "God Talk'' show on Sunday mornings.

When first arrested Ward claimed his involvement with Internet child porn was part of a research study he was conducting.

Barack Obama got his Democratic National Convention bounce. The Gallup daily tracking poll has him up by 8 points.

His bounce should have actually been more than 15 points after the elaborate set preparation and his rousing speech from the ‘Barackopolis’ at Invesco Field in front of over 80,000 people which was followed by drooling adulation from the main stream media.

The only mystery at MSNBC was which of the partisan anchors would soil their clothes first - Chris Matthews or Keith Olbermann. Hope they stocked up on Depends before the convention so they could swoon over Obama as much as they wanted.

Cable channel MSNBC has always relied on contention to get viewers. Now it may be getting out of hand.

Coverage of the Democratic National Convention has brought out the worst in some MSNBC hosts, including Chris Matthews (upper picture) and Keith Olbermann (center picture).

In an uncomfortable moment Tuesday night, an exhausted-looking "Hardball" host Chris Matthews shouted at a producer ("I'll wrap in a second!") before a stilted exchange with "Countdown" host Keith Olbermann, in which the two argued about who was talking out of turn.
